To determine if the given sequence is Geometric or not -
Answer to Problem 45RE
Thegiven sequence is a Geometric Sequence with common ratio as
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Sequence -
Formula Used:
Geometric sequence is a sequence of numbers where each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous one by a fixed, non-zero number called the common ratio. For example, the sequence
Calculation:
Given sequence is
Let
Now,
Since, all the ratios are same, the given sequence is a Geometric Sequence with common ratio as
Conclusion:
Hence, thegiven sequence is a Geometric Sequence with common ratio as
